Attract Families to Your Church and Keep Them Coming Back available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. To grow and remain vital, churches need to attract families. But the cultural landscape has changed and any church may have two-parent families with children, blended families, boomerang families, adult children of divorce and their families or lack of families, single adults whose family is the church, grandparents parenting again, childless families, co-habitation families, and children with three legal parents. What ministries are helpful in attracting and keeping families active and engaged in the life and mission of the church? This book will help church pastors and leaders navigate the changing tides in ministry to become the kind of church that families want to attend, where the church’s dynamic faith invites families who may then bring their friends.This means reaching out to all kinds of families, some with needs that only a church family can fulfill. With practical helps and suggestions for ministries, worship, small groups, and even facilities, author and family expert Linda Ranson Jacobs will help you create a welcoming place for everyone.

Do you delightfully wander through a shoe store, drooling at the various styles of footwear on the shelves? Maybe you can’t go on a shopping trip without coming home with a new pair. Certainly, a woman can never have too many shoes. In Standing on the Rock in Heels, author Robyn Besemann compares the many types of shoes and how they relate to our spiritual walk with God. From our first baby shoes to beautiful high heels, she shares how our spiritual walk can stay in the “baby Christian” stage, hold us in “spiritual flip flops” with no support, stay bound in “practical pumps” where we live by the “spiritual rules,” or walk with confidence as a woman of God in glorious heels. Offering an interesting exploration of shoes as they relate to sturdiness, support, confidence, walking boldly, commitment, and a growing faith, as well as the pitfalls that can trip us up, Standing on the Rock in Heels helps you grow in your walk with God, step by step.
